Standing Rock Sioux Tribe Program, Indians of Western States

There are several items included in this listing. Recently I purchased this souvenir booklet at an estate sale. Inside the booklet there is a program titled "Inauguration Ceremonies for Pat McLaughlin, Chairman Standing Rock Sioux Tribe". This program is dated October 28, 1977 with a location of Wakpala, South Dakota.

Next, there was a page or two from 'The Globe" dated December 29, 1981. I don't know if 'The Globe" is still around, but I believe it was like the National Enquirer that is out today. I'm guessing that this page from The Globe was in the booklet because it has sections on Indian astrology and fortune telling.

The main attraction of this listing is the souvenir booklet. The book, "Indians of the Western States" has full color illustrations of the Indians in Western America. The booklet measures 6 by 9 inches and has 24 pages. There are some very nice and historical photos in this souvenir book. I can find no date on this booklet, but researching it online I see references to the 1940s and the 1950s. Where those sellers came up with those dates is unknown to me.

There is no table of contents for the book, but flipping through it some of the highlights I see are:
Kiowa Indian artist Monroe Tsa-toke
Photos from Navajo territories
Navajo women's clothing and baby supplies

SPECIAL NOTE about SHIPPING CHARGES: Twice yearly and again in November for the holiday season (so 3 times each year) the postal service increases shipping charges. This is what they call their “Delivering for America” plan in which they hope to become profitable. It’s a 10 year plan that started in 2021, so we’ve got years to go with multiple price increases on shipping charges each year. I try to absorb some of the new charges and haven't increased my shipping charges in three years. This year, unfortunately, I have to increase the shipping. I'll try to keep it reasonable and even absorb some of the charges when possible.

I do combine shipping on multiple items purchased as long as all items can fit safely into a single box or envelope. However, my web host is not set up to calculate multiple item shipping costs. At checkout, you will be charged full shipping price on each item purchased and I will refund the appropriate amount of overpayment. If you are uncomfortable with that, you can send me an email with your zip code and stating which items you'll be purchasing and I'll calculate the correct combined shipping charges and send you a custom invoice.

INTERNATIONAL PURCHASES: Sorry, I do not ship to locations outside of the United States.

All items in my listings come from either estate or garage sales. I do not know if they came from homes where smoking or pets were present. All items are sold in the same condition as when I received them.
